The time. seemed _very short until my men_ returned. We wrapped the two in oneshroud, one winding-sheet; in life they had been much to each V other; we would 'not'divide them then. The heavy shot `were well secured at their feet ; I put the little chi1d s lips to it s mother s; I saw my men brush their rough sleeves across their eyes; and reading, with somewhat of a broken V voice, perhaps, tlielast service for the . dead, the shroud was closed, and the opening waters received them, and bore them away together to their last resting- place.

V The Sydney Herald poblishesan account of the massacre ot the; crew and burning of the schoone Pearl, of Anatam (or Anuatorn, south of the ow Hebrides), at Lefu. one oi` the Loyalty islands, east of New Caledonia. It is obtained from a passenger on board the Cla- rence Paclret, which narrowly escaped I similar late. She had no sooner anchored in the harbor of Randymoo, Banyatta, than she. was boarded by several natives, including two natives of Lefu, who said they had been left by the captain of a ship to trade for tortoise- shell. The statement continues :- . They inquired after the trade'we had on board,anl_said we had not got suicient to , buy all the shell on the shore, as Loudo, {the , chief, had a house full of it. They said that Loudo had got a bad foot, and wanted the captain to go on shore in the morning to look at the tortoise-shell, The captain told them Loudo, and bring something with him to make his foot well. About two o cloclt in the morn- ing the captain and myself were. talking over the occurrences of the day, and making cott- jectures about the characters of natives, when we heardsome ontcry In broken English, Is there anybody on deck"? Let me oorne on board. The second mate, who was keeping watch, recognized the man as one who had been on board the Curlew at Anatam some time before, and he came down into the cabin to inquire if he should be allowed to come on board. Being answered in the affirmative, the man was allowed to do so, when his first inquiry was, Are there any men of Rubyanna on board l When he was informed that one man was sleeping on board, he wanted to go into the hold and kill him, for, he said, men of Rubyanna no good; he kill all men belong- ing to Pearl schooner, and then make fire of ship. The man appeared very much ex- hausted, and after he had been a little while on board and got his -breath, he proceeded to tree on the mountains, where he had been hiding; that when it became darlr he had crept down to that beach a great distance from the ship, as he supposed the natives would set a watch to prevent his escape, and that he had swam adistance of ten miles (as far as we could judge), with a log of wood under one arm and a small club in the other hand, and appeared very anxious that the ship should get away at once, for fear we should suer the same fate as the Pearl. l- ............ On All unnnivinn inn infnrmerl [II he would come on `shore in the morning to sea . inform us that he had seen the vessel frotn a I In answer to.our inquiries, are mu.-mu.-u u. that the Pearl had been backwards and for- wards twice during her present cruize, and that the natives of the place always appeared friendly, and were allowed to go on board as muclt as they_liked; that on the day of the massacre two white men and four blacks went on shore for water, and the Chinaman to wash the captain : clothes. The men on board the ship were employed repairing the nails, 8 large number of canoes from Penn Petra, Rubyanna, Huolreloy, and the other side of Banyatta, were about the ship trading with tortoise-shell, ` and pigs; Loudo, the chief of Randyrnoo, and the chiefs of the other places inst named, were ' also on board. /it a given signalthe whole of the white men were seized,.each being held ' by one native whilst another tomahawked him. i When they were all disposed of, a signal was given to the natives on shore, who pursued the same course with the white men there-- speared one native of Erromartga, knocked another down, and then tomaltuwlted him, and went behind the Chinamau and totuahau-lied hint as he stood washing.

He alter- wards succeeded in getting into the bush, and continued there nearly two moons, hiding in trees byvday, and seeking for food and chang- ing his sleeping place every night, for fear of the natives tracing him_. He often obseived them looking for him, and says they stationed canoes along the shore to watch that he did not escape from the bush to our ship when she arrived. rm... :..r.......o:..n rlma rannivnd nut in on our ame late the reau. In to. our Inquiries, he informed us mu Iha pp/In-I hm` hann backwards fol - arnveu. The information thus received put us on our guard, and in the morning all hands were up by daylight, fully armed: the decks were bar- ricaded in two places with ropes, so as to pre- vent a general rush, should the natives be disposed to make an attack upon us. Trading commenced about seven o_ clocl:, a.m.; the natives who had slept on board, and two others who had come up with us the day before, and whom we allowed on deck, seemed very much surprised to see "all hands armed, and made the remark, This ship all same as small man"-of-war. .._ .......... .-l`..l anamm 1-na mmln lw ll ematt man-or-war." An unsuccessful attempt was made by a chief toindnce the captain to go ashore, and the chicf went away angry, threatening ven- geance. We had not_ been trading long before some one in a canoe called to a man aitting on the rail of the bnlwarks, Betiteal The captain, when he heard the name, said, "Are you Beaten-Chief Beatea 7 He replied "Yes, me Beaten. The captain then said, Me hear man apealr in Sydney Chief Beaten very good fellow; you wait here. me give you something. He then made him a small pre- sent, with which he appeared very pleased, then got into his canoe, and went about a ham dred yards astern of the vessel, appearing to holtlconaulraticn with the men (about forty) who werelwith him in his canoe; their delib~ eaations ended, he came back, close under the stern of the vessel, crying out, Captain, me epealree you; you come placebelonging me." Am! when the captain appeared to hesitate, he. said, " No good you stop here; you see man here too much like to `kill white man, and make re` of chip; no good you stop here. Seeing the captain consulting with me, he prepared to go` away, and cried out as he moved off a short distano'e-You,atop here, Very good ;` you no let any man come on deck ; yetrloolr ontvtnow; man belonging here no good, too much tiki white man. i = Arwe not to the entrance of the harbor pldnd` $2. 50 'if not paid [ ' within gin; months. 8000, I00 IIIUCIT SIKI Wll "1811."
